Buarremon baroni Salvin

Buarremon baroni Salvin, 1895: 5 , pl. 1, fig. 2 (Cajabamba (9,000 feet), Huamachuco (10,400 feet )).

Now Atlapetes latinuchus baroni ( Salvin, 1895) . See Hellmayr, 1938: 395, Garcia-Moreno and Fjeldså, 1999, Dickinson, 2003: 801, Ridgely and Tudor, 2009: 699, and Flórez-Rodríguez et al., 2011.

SYNTYPES: AMNH 100272, AMNH 520517, AMNH 520518, adult males, collected at Cajabamba, 9000 ft, 07.37S, 78.03W ( Stephens and Traylor, 1983), Cajamarca,

Peru, in January 1894 ; AMNH 520520 , adult male, collected at Huamachuco , 10,400 ft, 07.48S, 78.04W ( Stephens and Traylor, 1983), La Libertad, Peru, on 25 March 1894, all collected by O.T. Baron.

COMMENTS: The 1894 Baron collection from Peru, reported on by Salvin (1895), was partly deposited in BMNH and partly in the Rothschild Collection , but types were not designated by Salvin for the new taxa. Thus all of Baron’s 1894 specimens of baroni are syntypes of the name, the exact number not given by Salvin. AMNH 100272 was received in exchange from Rothschild in 1907 ; the other three syntypes came with the purchase of the Rothschild Collection in 1932 but were not listed by Hartert in any of his type lists. There are also two male and one female syntypes in BMNH ( Warren and Harrison, 1971: 57) .
